So, yes, I need to talk about last weekend because it was pretty awesome.

Trent and Caroline didn't have the kidface (visiting gramma's!) over the weekend, so we hung out both Friday AND Saturday.

The guys were working a little late on Friday, so Caroline came over and we ordered pizza and were eating it and watching Beauty and the Beast when Steve and Trent got in.

After that, we went the Forum Shops and wandered around for forever. First stop, of course, was FAO Schwarz. That's where I found the BEE SEAL. It was on sale for $16 so I got it. I carried it around for about half an hour while we walked around the store (they got rid of the third level... bleh!), which means a definite buy, because sometimes I carry something around for ten minutes and then decide against buying it and put it down somewhere.

More walking around the shops, lots of walking. Much thirst ensued, so we grabbed some overpriced refreshments. More walking. The shoes I was wearing were hurting my feet. D:

We made our way back out and then went to this Irish pub we like and had some drinks and nibbles and chatted and listened to the cover band playing (their version of "Hey Ya" was pretty amusing).

Saturday night, we wandered around The District and then went to PF Chang's for dinner, and it was quite excellent. Usually that place is kind of so-so, but everything was really good that night.

Back to the pub again for more of the same as Friday night, only this time there was a band accompanied by a woman doing that Irish stepdancing stuff. Pretty cool. Very percussive.

On the way back, we saw a kit fox, sitting in the middle of the road licking itself. Steve had to slow down the car to avoid hitting it, and it scampered off.

Really good weekend overall, even including the hours-long nap Steve and I took on Saturday. It IS pretty nice to do that from time to time. Sleeping just to sleep, mmm.

And now we have a three day weekend coming up. Hooray!
